lol, I know a lot of this is fun and games, but not only "NO" but "HELL,NO" ... and we are pretty self sufficient country living people. We can both hunt and are intelligent and resourseful. Argent has spent the last 10 years building our home, yes totally, plumbing, electric, stone work, tile all of it. We are not talking some cabin or kit, but a 3 story 4,000 sq ft house. we know how to fish without all the fancy rigs. He can start a fire pretty good and when I was growning up my aunt and uncle didn't get electricity til I was maybe 5 or 6 and didn't get indoor running water til I was about 14 -15, so know about living without all the amenities. It is possible, but it is not fun and it is not romantic. tetanus, typhiod, even bad flu, pnumonia, a broken bone can kill you by becoming infected with out real medical care. Living without all of life's luxuries, sure. Alone on a dessert island? Oh ... where are the mixers and alcohol coming from for the cocktials? Ice? The cute umbrellas? If we can sneak thru the trees occasionally to the resort on the otehr side of the island for a hot shower and to bring back a few "essentials" ... sure thing! MsOpal
